Ah.  The kludgy font lookup changed a while ago to be even more kludgy.
Also, we now have kpathsea, but that won't work on Windows currently.

No need.  Before, it was simpler: we had only one symlink (cmtfm) and
I tried to fix that `manually' for the Windows binary to point to the
default (=your) miktex path.

Almost, I hope.  You'd have to create symlinks to

   ../lilypond/tfm.1 -> /miktex/.../fonts/tfm/cm

or where your cmr10.tfm lives, and to

   ../lilypond/tfm.2 -> /miktex/.../fonts/tfm/ams/symbols

or where your msam10.tfm lives (for the black triangle in chords).

Hope this helps,
Greetings,
Jan.

Btw,

I don't know what to do about this, maybe we should have a simple
script for windows.  Do you have something like kpsewhich?

   08:38:43 appel ~/usr/src/lilypond-1.3.73$ kpsewhich cmr10.tfm
   /usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/jknappen/sauter/cmr10.tfm
